Introduction to Linen Fabric？

Flax remains a vital raw material for textiles and a valued oil crop. Celebrated as the "Queen of Natural Fibers," flax fiber is prized for its natural, rustic elegance and rare, luxurious appeal. Traditional Chinese medicine recognizes flax’s unique harmony with human skin—it helps regulate temperature, offers protection, and exhibits natural antiviral and antibacterial properties.

Why Flax Stands Out:
Superior hygiene performance – Rapid moisture absorption and heat dissipation
Breathable & smooth – Exceptionally comfortable, warm in winter and cool in summer
Static-resistant – Naturally repels dust and dirt

Science-Backed Benefits:
Research from Australia’s DNSW Fiber School confirms:
Flax’s hemicellulose blocks 90%+ UV radiation, shielding skin and offering anti-magnetic/anti-radiation effects.
Lab tests show flax mats increase bacterial/fungal mortality rates by 70%+ versus grass/bamboo mats, proving potent antimicrobial action.

Key Characteristics:
✓ Temperature-regulating – Cools instantly via rapid moisture wicking
✓ Antibacterial & breathable – Prevents odor-causing microbes
✓ Static-free & durable – Strongest plant fiber (10% stronger when wet)
✓ Eco-luxury – 12% moisture regain (outperforms cotton), dries 50% faster

Care Simplified:
Machine-washable or dry-cleanable (some finishes may require dry cleaning)
Iron safely at 450°F (232°C) – No pilling, no static, no lint

Using some data to illustrate the hygiene performance of flax: DNSW Fiber School in Australia provides research information: flax contains hemicellulose that can absorb ultraviolet light, preventing it from reaching the human body, protecting the skin, and has anti magnetic and anti radiation effects. The results of contact testing and leachate testing show that compared with the control of grass and bamboo mats, the mortality rate of bacteria and fungi in flax mats is significantly increased, indicating that flax mats have a certain bactericidal effect.

Characteristics of linen: cool, sweat absorbing, non stick, antibacterial, breathable, anti-static, natural fiber, green boutique.

It has good strength, with the highest strength among plant fibers. When wet, the strength can increase by 10%. It has a good hand feel and a good luster. Better water absorption than cotton (with a moisture regain of 12%), it can quickly absorb moisture and dry quickly. Due to the cooling effect caused by rapid drying, these characteristics make it particularly suitable for wearing in hot weather environments. Linen has strong washability and can also be dry cleaned. However, sometimes it is mandatory for fabrics to be dry cleaned due to the need for finishing or product structure. The highest safe ironing temperature for linen is about 450 ℉ (232 ℃), and it will not produce static electricity or pilling. Hemp fabrics are characterized by not shedding fluff due to their lack of short fibers.
